Gratification

This isn't the first garden we've had right at the house.  Back at the townhouse, when we gave up on our first garden plot (the year The Boy was born), we still planted some vegetable plants in the back yard at the townhouse.

That being said, I shouldn't be surprised by what I'm about to say.

I think it's really cool to be able to go out to my garden, harvest some things and immediately eat them.  I'm surprised that I still think it's very novel.

Just a little bit ago, I went out to the garden to harvest a few leaves of the lettuce we're growing.  I brought it in, washed it, then paired it with one of the last Roma tomatoes from the garden to go on a chicken salad sandwich.

I enjoyed every bite.  The fact that some of the ingredients came from my own garden made it even better.
